Alexander and His Clarinet |
| Alexander Adams played a clarinet |
| Brought out music that no one has brought out yet |
| Miss Eliza Johnson was his angel pet |
| And Alexander was her one best bet |
| Strange to say they quarreled on last Sunday night |
| Monday evening Alexander came in sight |
| Played his clarinet beneath her window light |
| To hear Eliza yell with all her might |
| Honey, is that you? |
| yes, yes |
| Don’t even have to guess, my honey, what brought you? |
| Oh pet, I see you brought your clarinet |
| My honey, I’m angry, no, no For lawdy sake don’t dare to go My pet, I love you yet |
| And then besides, I love your clarinet |
| Alexander played his clarinet with vim |
| Up to Liza’s door, then played himself right in When he got inside he played and played like sin |
| Then played her cards to see who’d buy the gin |
| When he left, Miss Liza tried some sleep to get |
| Dreamt her Romeo came back to Juliet |
| Also dreamt he brought with him his clarinet |
| If no one woke her, she’d be shouting yet |
